Capturing sequences adjacent to Type-IIs restriction sites for genomic library mapping
The present invention relates to novel methods for sequencing and mapping genetic markers in polynucleotide sequences using Type-IIs restriction endonucleases. The methods herein described result in the "capturing" and determination of specific oligonucleotide sequences located adjacent to Type-IIs restriction sites. The resulting sequences are useful as effective markers for use in genetic mapping, screening and manipulation.

Claims
1. A method of identifying sequences in a polynucleotide sequence, comprising:
- (a) cleaving the polynucleotide sequence with a first type-IIs endonuclease;
- (b) ligating a first adapter sequence to the polynucleotide sequence cleaved in step (a), said first adapter having a recognition site for a second type-IIs endonuclease, the recognition site being oriented so that the second type-IIs endonuclease has a cleavage site in the polynucleotide sequence;
- (c) cleaving the polynucleotide sequence resulting from step (b), with the second type-IIs endonuclease;
- (d) ligating a second adapter sequence to the polynucleotide sequence cleaved in step (c); and
- determining the sequence of nucleotides of the polynucleotide sequence between the first and second adapter sequences.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein:
- the first type-IIs endonuclease is selected from the group consisting of BsmAI, EarI, MnlI, PleI, AlwI, BbsI, BsaI, BspMI, Esp3I, HgaI, SapI, SfaNI, BseRI, HphI and MboII; and
- the second type-IIs endonuclease is selected from the group consisting of HgaI, BbvI, BspMI, BsmFI and FokI.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein
- the first type-IIs endonuclease is EarI; and
- the second type-IIs endonuclease is HgaI.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein said first and second adapter sequences comprise primer sequences.
5. The method of claim 4, wherein prior to said determining step, the sequence of nucleotides in the polynucleotide between the first and second adapter sequences is amplified.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein the sequence of nucleotides between the first and second adapter sequences is determined by hybridization to an oligonucleotide probe.
7. The method of claim 6, wherein said oligonucleotide probe is a positionally distinct probe on an oligonucleotide array, a position of the probe being indicative of the sequence of the probe.
8. A method of generating an ordered map of a library of polynucleotide fragments, the method comprising:
- identifying sequences in each of the polynucleotide fragments in the library, according to the method of claim 1;
- comparing the sequences identified in each fragment with the sequences identified in each other fragment to obtain a level of correlation between each fragment and each other fragment; and
- ordering the fragments according to their level of correlation.
9. A method of identifying polymorphisms in a target polynucleotide sequence, the method comprising:
- identifying sequences in a wild-type polynucleotide sequence, according to the method of claim 1,
- repeating said identifying step on the target polynucleotide sequence; and
- determining differences in the sequences identified in each of said identifying steps, the differences being indicative of a polymorphism.
10. The method of claim 1, wherein said sequences in a polynucleotide sequence are adjacent to a polymorphism, said polymorphism resulting in a presence of a type-IIs restriction endonuclease recognition site in said polynucleotide sequence.
11. A method of identifying a source of a biological sample, the method comprising:
- identifying a plurality of sequences in a polynucleotide sequence derived from the sample, according to the method of claim 1; and
- comparing the plurality of sequences identified in said identifying step with a plurality of sequences identically identified from a polynucleotide derived from a known source, identity of the plurality of sequences identified from the sample with the plurality of sequences identified from the known source being indicative that the sample was derived from the known source.
